Hosea Matthews is a prominent character in Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption 2. He serves as the trusted advisor and closest friend to Dutch van der Linde, the charismatic leader of the Van der Linde gang.

A seasoned con artist and intellectual, Hosea is significantly older than most of the other gang members. He possesses a sharp mind, a silver tongue, and a talent for planning elaborate schemes designed to improve the gang's fortunes.

While committed to the outlaw life, Hosea often expresses reservations about Dutch's increasingly radical and violent methods. He yearns for a more peaceful future, frequently discussing the possibility of settling down and abandoning their life of crime.

Beyond his role as a strategist and conman, Hosea acts as a mentor and father figure to many within the gang, particularly Arthur Morgan. He tries to instill in them a sense of morality and caution, often contrasting with Dutch's increasingly erratic behavior.

His ultimate fate is tragic, playing a significant role in the unraveling of the Van der Linde gang, highlighting the consequences of their lifestyle and the shifting landscape of the American West.
